Well. THis holidays involved spending 1 week at my mum/grandma's house, and meeting my North Shore friends, and the ANIMANIA!! let me tell you, it was so awesome ;_; Especially Day 2 (sunday)
On saturday it was really crowded though, and there were a few people that recognised me as a Fatal Frame cosplayer, but alot never remember if it was Mio or Mayu LOL.
But Anyway, on Saturday on the way to preregistration entry, I heard footsteps coming my way, so I looked up and winne and I hade a glomping moment :D
I used my dad's old antique camera for the Fatal Frame/Project Zero 2 cosplay by the way LOL.
I splitted up with Winnie because she had to wait for a friend who didn't preregister, so I ended up to the doodling competition table (After this girl took a photo of me and said she was a huge fan of Fatal Frame)
I met Julia aka Kaoru87 from DA (she was sitting next to me). j-b0x/jessica had found me and she was with a friend, it was pretty cool 8D. Strange we've never met each other and knew each other by photos and we act like as if we've known each other IRL for a while LOL. She's so cool. Shortly when I was doodling, sugarplumneko from DA found me! She was so afraid to ask if I was Miyukiko XD
"Are you......"
"Miyukiko? yes. X)"
Heise had a table, so did Kabukiyasha (she cosplayed FF:AC cloud, and she kissed Vincent on stage on Saturday LMAO)
After a while, Houkiboshi/Laryln/Dad and I finally mettt :D she's pretty :(. She was meant to kinda cosplay Miyako, the first ghost from Fatal Frame 2 LOL.
I joined a fair bit of art comps (although I didn't win any, I've seen a fair bit of people pointing to mine or voting, so I'm happy.. TWT)
Whilst lining up for the cosplay comp, A Miku Hinasaki (Fatal Frame 1) came up to me!!!! and I took a pic with her omg~

Since Larlyn had to go early, I ended up going on stage as a individual cosplay~
Me and Larlyn kept talking about how cool the Near was (she was playing with Lego and wandering around after a while).
The Bonta-kun cosplay from Full Metal Panic! was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Unbelievably cute!! *_*.. It was walking and waddling like a penquin with it's arms out on stage~ and when the host asked the questions, It replied "Fumoffu!" and stuff like that LOL.
The Final Fantasy Tribute cosplayers did a good job on the performance~ Each main character couple from FF6,7,8,9,10,10-2 they did the FF8 dance together LOL. They also won the cosplay comp~ <3
... Me and Larlyn took a photo with the tentacle monster I think. LOL.
Oh yeah. Aunt Bess gave me $300 after dinner, and she went back to Hong Kong on Sunday.
DAY 2. (Sunday)
I went as Misa Amane from Death Note, and I found the same Near (Cassie is her real name) and she was really nice and cool~
"Misa!!"
me "OWO... n-Near~ 8D"
And we took group photos of me, Near and Raito (cosplayed by Su. She also cosplayed RIku from KH that day)

Me, Cassie and Su~ I got to sign her Death Note!! XD I kinda stole her idea and did the same with my Death Note too, using it as a guestbook ish :3
I went doodling comp again, and talked to this guy, his name was Tin. He was funny, he came with his sister (Tammy is it?) she was so giggly and cute~!. and his friend Harry and Harry's sister. Jenny.
Harry was so Hilarious O_O Laughed so much that day.
They were really nice to me, and then later offered to go get lunch together, so we did, and then we stopped by at Galaxy World, but I had to get back, plus I was in the cosplay comp too :3
(On the way out to lunch, I got to hug a giant Totoro cosplayer~ "Totoro!!!" "MisaaMisa!")
One of the Volunteer Staff in Animania recognised me and asked me if I was Miyukiko when I was doodling. She was krystal-n~! the one who told me alot of the info about Animania T3T <3
I hung around Near (Cassie) quite a bit XD;~ I drew her a 2 minute Near drawing T3T)
I bought a YYH and FMA doujinshi lol. pretty expensive but meh.
I got to talk to and take a photo with kabukiyasha, she's the one who drew the manga 'Virus' and cosplayed as FFAC cloud on Saturday and Sunday~ I was surprised she remembered me... and was so nice.. TAT she always helps me on advices on art related things like artist tables and manga etc~

In the Karaoke lounge~ another Misa =3. And there was a L, which was cosplayed by Maggie~ 8D we were just talking about random stuff there, and we were waiting for Su to change back to Raito and come back here, because Near (Cassie) wanted a group photo of out lil Death Note cast.
So then, after we went back to the main area, and I glimpsed that Cassie had quickly run off to a direction (not the exit direction), but we didn't see her since OwO. Me, Maggie and Su were trying to find her and waited for her a bit~
"NEAR!! where ARE YOU?!!" <-- etc.
But we also did some other photos.


Maggie (L)"I'm hungry.."
Su (Raito)"Want an apple?"
Anyhows, the Sanzo from Saturday's cosplay comp (SHE WAS SO AWESOME!! wacking the host guy with the funny hat with a paper fan.. forgot his name :( ) on sunday, she and a friend were one of the karaoke finalists and they sung the Roy & Riza song (she was roy)
Kabukiyasha was also a finalist, and she sung Melodies of Life. ANother girl sung the Hunter X Hunter 1st ending song.. what's it's.. Kaze.. something.. *forget*
When me, Maggie (L) and Su (Raito) parted, it was Su who left first, then shortly later, me and Maggie decide to go home, and I go down towards the train part, and she was going different direction, then toward the train station, I saw Su come out LOL. When I thought I borded my train, Maggie went into the same one too LOL. (coincidence). But then shortly I realised I went on the wrong train when I reached central.
Got off at Redfern and had to get the train back, and dad picked me up from chatswood.
